ETABS Tutorial Example Acecoms, Ait

This document provides details for modeling and analyzing a 10-story reinforced concrete building in ETABS, including section properties of building elements, story heights, static load cases for dead and live loads, wind load cases, equivalent lateral force analysis parameters based on IBC2000, and equivalent static force cases for seismic loading. Beam and column dimensions, slab and shear wall thicknesses, load values, and analysis parameters such as time period, response modification factor, and seismic design coefficients are specified.
